You can't be a Jackson without having something to prove. And if you're Janet Jackson, watching Michael collect Grammys like Halloween candy meant needing to step out of his shadow and fill an awards shelf yourself. She was already a TV star thanks to "Good Times," but which album became Jackson's first to win music's highest prize?
▼
Correct Answer: Rhythm Nation 1814
"Rhythm Nation 1814" nabbed Janet Jackson her first Grammy in 1990 for Best Long Form Music Video. Yes, while the album hit #1, had a record seven top-five songs, and helped set the tone for the '90s, it was the artsy 30-minute black-and-white film that got the gold. Jackson has gone on to win four more Grammys since then and (controversies that weren't her fault aside) has continued creating dance routines some of us can only dream of trying to copy from the living room.
